Overinflation - Is there a tire mileage penalty?

Is there any penalty to be paid in the total miles traveled on a tire that has been overinflated all its life? With the vehicle weight on a smaller patch, do they still get 30-60k miles?

Sure, the MPG driver isn't going to do much tire squealing, but surely it would affect the life span, wouldn't it?
